He was one of the star athletes
So much so that he was given an athletic scholarship

got the name Dr Death because of his tuff reputation.
This is where his famous tackle attack was formed.
No one could tear down a defensive line
like Dr Death using the famous tackle attack.

Soon after college he signed a contract with the
USFL New Jersey Generals,

During this period he held the
World Heavyweight Championship in 1987,
Tag team champion in 1986 and 1988
From there he moved to the NWA (National Wrestling Association)
this one lasted from 1987 through 1988.
From there he moved on to the New NWA, this is when Ted Turner
bought into the wrestling business.
Steve left the NWA in 1990. This is where he left the eyes and ears
of American wrestling fans, it was like he dropped of the earth,
other then a few appearances here and there.
